Wonderful retrospective! Thank you for showing the depth and breadth of his career. I met him in line at a grocery store in 1992 and all my companion and I could think to saywas "we really appreciate your work, Sir" to which, he said "thank you.' In Hollwood, when you run into someone you admire, it really isn't polite to make a fuss as they are buying groceries or in line at the pharmacy, etc. LOL. I wish we had said more but I think he could tell how much we admired him. A tourist would have asked for an autograph, but those of us who worked in the Industry would usally keep our remarks brief and quiet. He was a gifted character actor. and is greatly missed.
Ryan was cast and then uncast as Carlo in The Godfather...his test was so good Mario Puzo sought him out to compliment him.....don't see him as Carlo, but he could've played Tom Hagen
@@CultPerformers I actually saw about a minute of his Godfather screen test as he was tying his tie to go out while Talia Shire was screaming at him...lol
Terrific job man! This guy is an extremely, perhaps criminally underrated actor.
Glad you liked it. Thx for watching 😉👍
Great Job, underrated actor.

Underated Actor
Stellar!
He was so good in "It's Alive".
I always noticed this guy, great to learn more about him.
Your videos are fantastic hope to see your channel grow! Keep up the good work
He was great in Avenging Force as the villain .He would have made a brilliant James Bond villain doing battle against Roger Moore.
Great video. Gotta get Class on 1999

@@anthonydileonardo8156 Really? I didn't know that. That's very interesting. I also think he could have done a good Tom Hagen. Btw thx for watching. 👍
